Nerds unite.
Why's everyone so damn unhappy all the time?!
Big emo tear
Let's loose ourselves
in all our horrible situations
Let's clear our shelves
for dismay and hestitations
No friends?
No problem,
I'm all I rely on.
No friends?
No problem,
Got my trusty handgun.
Gotta find somone to blame
To believers it's satan
Those who don't know blame God
To achievers a hinderance
Those who don't know blame themselves
We have to learn to roll with the punches.
What, in the busy lifestyles of modern times, do we have to hold on to? To know for certain? To put all our trust into?
My mom says that universal religion is "the pursuit of bliss, and the avoidance of pain," she said she got that from a prophet. But what do we truly know, but the never-ending string of paradoxes that make up reality. "Ultimate truth," she said, "requires a contradiction."
Someone asked me once, in the middle of a debate on religion "Scripture claims that God is all powerful and that he can build a mountain that no one can move. Yet it also claims that God is almighty and can move any mountian. How can that be so?"
To understand God, we have to throw away our methods and our logic, and replace them with acceptance. Through acceptance can God only be revealed. We, as humans, feel the need to have everything explained and proved and set right in front of us. This isn't a problem, it's just a different route, but it makes a daily walk a little more frusterating. God is beyond human comprehension, and only when we accept that can our eyes truly be open to the constant evidence that God provides. Another paradox: To understand Him, you have to accept that He is beyond our understanding.
I'm not Christian.
